Razer took everyone by surprise at CES this year when the gaming peripherals maker introduced its first Android TV device called the Forge TV. Well, it seems they have wowed the attendees as the micro-console has just won the coveted People’s Choice Award for Best of CES 2015.
It was a close call, however, as it won with only 16.13 percent of the vote — the AirDog drone came in second at 14.62 percent and the Misfit Bolt clocked in at third with 11.96 percent. Only a few thousand votes separated first, second and third place!
Razer’s Forge TV system consists of a Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 quad-core Krait 450 CPU clocked at 2.5GHz, Adreno 420 GPU, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of built-in storage, Bluetooth 4.1 + HS, 802.11ac (2×2) Wi-Fi, and GbE LAN port, HDMI 1.4 output.
In addition to gaming on the Forge TV, users will have access to other types of apps and will be able to interact with the console through their mobile devices, including iOS, Android, Chromebook, Windows, and more.
The Forge TV will be available in the first quarter for $100, or $150 bundled with a Serval controller.
